金継ぎした器の取り扱い方法

Hello Steven, I am sorry it has taken me so long to respond to your question, because I have not received notifications of comments for a long time.
It may be too late, but I will answer your question now as it will be helpful to others.

Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re glad to hear you’ve discovered the joy of kintsugi.

Regarding whether kintsugi repairs can be used for tableware – our kits utilize the traditional method with natural urushi and pure gold powder, so the repaired potteries are completely food-safe.
However, urushi is sensitive to high heat, so you’ll want to avoid using the pieces over an open flame. Also, do not use in microwave ovens or dishwashers.

On the other hand, there are many kintsugi kits on the market that use alternative adhesives like epoxy instead of natural urushi, or substitute gold-colored powders for pure gold. Pieces repaired with those kits are not food-safe and are only suitable for decorative use.
I hope this helps explain the difference!
Let me know if you have any other questions. We’re always happy to provide more information about kintsugi and our products.

Hey chimahaga,

First of all I have to thank you for introduce kintsugi to me! For me its like meditation and relaxing for my soul.
Thank you very much for your guides :-)

I m Not sure in that Case, but is it possible to use the ceramics normaly? For example using a teapot…I read a Lot of people saying its Just in use as decoration.

Whats your opinion/knowledge about that.

Thanks in advance for your Response and again….thank you again for showing me that world 🤗
